The Role of User Experience Design in Advancing Digital Sustainability
Abstract: Digital systems, particularly in the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) sector, are responsible for growing energy consumption. This paper examines how user experience (UX) design choices contribute to digital carbon emissions through inefficient data processing, premature hardware obsolescence, and cognitive overload. Drawing from real-world applications and research-backed principles, the study proposes a sustainable UX design framework that prioritizes cognitive efficiency, longevity, and clarity. The findings emphasize that enhancing user-centric experiences can align closely with environmental goals, offering a dual advantage for businesses and the planet.
Keywords: Sustainable UX design, digital carbon footprint, interface efficiency, user-centered systems, environmental sustainability, Solar Framework
